Yep. That's my butt. A self-portrait of my butt in New Zealand enjoying one of my favorite views.

Hello, I'm Megan, a Midwest and United States based destination wedding photographer. I have an infatuation with human connection, anthropology, travel, and great outdoors. I'm a sucker for an adventure, emotional moments and really good food. I'm a Florida native who has made the city of Chicago her home for the last 7 years, but belongs somewhere in the mountains in front of a good campfire.

One day I woke up and I wanted to be a photographer. A photographer that wanted to capture human interactions and emotion creatively. For years I searched for that outlet and one day I stumbled upon wedding photography and became instantly connected. I discovered that photographing two people in love, their interactions, and their story fueled my passion.

I resonate with intimate, honest weddings, ones that present as unique and authentic, ones with tradition but they threw that tradition out the door and made their day an authentic representation of their marriage.

The not-so about

a photographer

As an artist, I am able to document weddings while incorporating my own artistic visions and yours. I love natural light, nature, and intimate moments. It is important to me for you to trust me as photography is a collaboration. SOME FUN FACTS ABOUT ME

Some times I'm a red head, other days I have pink or purple hair. I'm short + I lost track of my tattoos. I'm a plant enthusiast with a love for herbs, morbid curiosities, mid-century modern furniture and an organic lifestyle. I have an adventurous soul that can't sit still for very long. My cats + dog are the loves of my life. My favorite tv show is Grey's Anatomy + I'm pretty devastated that House is over. However, I'm digging the new Sabrina. Pop-punk is my jam. Brand New for days upon days. I'd be an interior designer if I wasn't a photographer. Halloween + Christmas are my favorite holidays so you can sometimes catch me playing Christmas music in July or dressing up in January. I wish every day was fall. I'm an urban gardener in the summer. Last but not least, I'm a woman who does not let her dreams stay dreams.

My Approach

I'm an observer. I love to watch people, their connection, and the intimate moments between them. I look for the imperfect, unexpected moments. My approach is to capture you as you. Capture the moments that matter. The outtakes, the "hidden" moments, the best moments, your laugher, the two of you together. Environment plays a huge role in my photography so I am always seeking unique locations that may be meaningful to you or provides interesting light.
